Leaked E-mails
On Wendesday 16th November 2005, Perplex City players who had completed the set of four blue hex cards were sent an e-mail congratulating them from the Academy.
However, it seems that the Academy's e-mail system managed to leak some internal e-mails at the bottom of these e-mails sent out to players. Each player so far has received a different e-mail fragment. They are arranged below in date order.
The top portion of the e-mail reads:
Congratulations, you've solved a set of four Perplex City cards. We've rewarded you by doubling your points for each of the cards in the set.
Your Perplex Point total is now [total]. You have solved [x] cards.
We in Perplex City would like to thank you for your continued dedication to our cause. With your help, we are certain that the Receda Cube will be found and returned safely.
Sincerely,
The Puzzle Scribe Team

I can't say that Prof Kiteway was being particularly reasonable.

So why won't he just allow her to do her Cube research then? It seems a perfectly sensible request - she's head of Natural Sciences, one would have thought it was her field of expertise.

Oh. Right. Heh. Not too sinister then... I thought she might have had some actual reason for that threat to steal the thing.

I don't think you appreciate the gravity of the situation. With only a week to go, the entire project could have been compromised. I will need to consider this further.

Your Aunty Annaliese Adamek and I feel it's far too long since we last saw you. Would you girls be free for tea tomorrow afternoon? Say 4pm?
Love,

No problem. This kind of emergency is just what they train us for in the Defence Forces. That and escorting the drunk-and-disorderly home.

Kurt... asking this because I know Von looks up to you. Do you think you could find some way to let him know that getting coffee for Tippy isn't part of his job description? He doesn't need to be rude, just tell her that he has work to be getting on with. I'll have a word with her privately.

Don't mean to interfere but you know that you don't have to get coffee for Tippy, right? She's perfectly capable of doing it herself.

P -
1. Pls check with CRR et al for status report.
2. Do we have the agenda for the 3pm PCAG meeting?
3. Pls chase Sedgewick for her budget proposals. Again.

No, I think Mr Chest-full-of-medals has more important things to be doing than hanging out with us.

Tippy. I would appreciate it if you did not refer to Garnet in such a disrespectful way. He has been a member of the defence forces of this city for many years, has assisted in the capture of numerous criminals and has been awarded every one of those "chest full of medals" for distinguished service. When you've done anything so worthwhile, you'll have earned the right to criticise.
